Overall
Score
7.7
Nose
Stone fruit-tastic. Fresh and grilled peaches tossed with toasted hazelnuts, walnuts and a honey-mustard dressing.
Palate
A blanket of creamy vanilla lies atop this, before the Dr Jekyll character bursts through. Funky green flavours, peach, orange zest, salty and bitter blue cheese and walnut.
Finish
Soft-serve vanilla ice-cream.
Comment
Interestingly, rather than dominate and deaden the whisky, the vanilla adds a creaminess to the mouthfeel that really benefits those other zanier flavours.
